GlobaLeaks

Anonymous Whistleblowing can be easy and secure.

The GlobaLeaks suite of software will empower people to stand up anonymously no
matter what their definition of "whistleblowing" is. The person or
organization running the software will be able to customize the
platform to best suit its needs. GlobaLeaks is designed with flexibility
in mind, while enabling maximum level of privacy and security by default.

Open source, open documentation.

We believe it is important to make this tool a free software because this allows many
types of people to use GlobaLeaks and enables the creation of a community that
constantly can contribute to improve the framework.

What we are not!

GlobaLeaks is not the new WikiLeaks.

In fact we have nothing in common. We provide a software; they provide a
service. We are an open-source community; they're a closed group of individuals
operating behind a public face. We do not handle leaked documents; they do.

GlobaLeaks security is limited

We do our best to provide very secure software, however that's just software and it
cannot protect security and anonymity outside our Threat Model.
GlobaLeaks does not protect against keyloggers or any other means that compromise
the computer security. Especially it does not protect against human mistakes.

GlobaLeaks doesn't want your data.

When you set up a "GlobaLeaks node" – another term for a whistleblowing site –
you don't become part of a network, but rather just a node on your own. We
invite you to report the existence of your whistleblowing site in
LeakDirectory, but that's really up to you.

Lots of usecases, one software

We are interested in fulfilling the needs of diverse public interest use cases:
from media to public agencies, from corporations to activists. We use
the term framework to emphasize the flexibility of the GlobaLeaks platform. For
example, the whistleblower will be anonymous by default, but if
whistleblowers choose to disclose their identity, the framework allows them to
do so.

Why is transparency important?

GlobaLeaks strives to increase accountability and transparency in our society.
When information that affects the public remains hidden, democracy
and economies cease to function properly.

Start a GlobaLeaks node, demand transparency!

We believe the public should demand that governments and companies be more
accountable for their actions. And we believe governments and economies that
embrace openness will benefit by promoting trust and enabling informed
discourse and decision-making.
